Job ID: 43090

Job Type: Direct Hire

Category: Marketing

Location: Calgary, Alberta

We're looking for an outgoing, creative thinker who brings fresh ideas and hands-on marketing and communications expertise. Someone who understands how to engage an audience, strengthen brand presence, elevate messaging, and turn strategy into action, while also building genuine, lasting relationships in the community.

This role calls for a driven and confident professional who can see the bigger picture while executing the details that bring campaigns to life. You're just as comfortable analyzing SEO performance and developing digital content as you are stepping out from behind the screen to attend events, connect with partners, and represent the brand in meaningful, public-facing ways.

As a true brand ambassador, you will marry both the creative and the technical elements of all things marketing, while bringing the brand to life through real, human connection. Whether it's through campaigns, conversations, or community presence, you play a key role in shaping how the organization is seen and experienced.

Our internal team is made up of high performers who genuinely care - about our work, our clients, and the candidates we support every day. We celebrate wins, support one another, and are motivated by the impact we make in people's careers and businesses. If you're energized by collaboration, inspired by growth, and excited by the opportunity to contribute both strategically and in the community, we'd love to hear from you.

- Monitor and analyze performance metrics using Google Analytics 4 (GA4), Google Business, and Google Search Console, and provide insights and recommendations based on findings.

- Conduct A/B testing across social media platforms, paid campaigns, and website design to support continuous improvement.
- Participate in media opportunities, including interviews and public-facing communications, as required.
- Support search engine optimization (SEO) initiatives including keyword research, backlink development, technical and on-page optimization, metadata enhancements, and AI optimization considerations.
